Hamjatta,

I was in a hurry before, but i will now respond to your post that is rife 
with cliches all expressing your shortsightedness as usual.

Before I begin, no doubt Dampha will continue to be a paper tiger behind his 
mask, and that is as expected. 

You as the decoy to continue the quest of evading the issue and focusing on 
your favourite passtime, displaying your hatred for PDOIS and your baseless 
allegations designed  to malign anyone unless they have the same view 
continues. I did not see any response from you regarding my post on the 
allinace when it was directed at PDOIS and NCP because i mistakenly thought 
the ywere the ones dragging their feet on the alliance. No surprise there.

Now, regarding whether Malick Kah attacked you or not, that is not my point 
here at all. You better take that up with him. My point, which you missed, 
was pertaining to the issue of spitting out venom about asylum, and how that 
is not consistent with someone who says they defend a position that is geared 
towards providing Gambians with certain rights. The other point here is that 
both you and Dampha use all these cheap shots to personally attack whenever 
you cannot argue on the issues at hand, just like you are doing now.Is it 
really any concern of your Hamjatta whether Malick Kah applied for asylum or 
how he applied for it? Are you really that hateful and petty to focus on such 
a thing? What will that do for you? Convince us that you are a fine young man 
who wants the best for all of his compatriots?

Regarding my "about face" which you said is due to Halifa rebuking me, I 
think that is a cheap shot and even you know that this is a bunch of 
nonsense. It goes hand in hand with your allegation that I have always been 
slipshod on the positions I hold here on the L.  That one goes hand in hand 
with some strange allegations that i have alswys been pro Jammeh. 
Now Hamjatta, if that is your way of trying to make me feel insecure about 
the positions I have taken regarding this coalition, or my leanings towards 
PDOIS, then nice try. Perhaps this would work on someone who is less sure of 
themselves.

I was going to ask why you would be so concerned about my political 
affiliations to the point of raising the issue in response to a matter that 
did not even involve you, but one does not have to look too closely to know 
that it is your very obviously deep seated hatred for PDOIS and your 
continuous attempt to smear and discredit them at every chance. This has 
become a strange pre-occupation for you, and i wonder what it is you are 
afraid of. 

Could it be that my declared leanings towards PDOIS is seen as by you as a 
personal failure in your endless quest to discredit this party? Well, 
political affilaitions I choose do not concern you, nor do i owe you or 
anyone else any explanations on that. To you yours, and to me mine.

However, I will make your day even more pleasant by telling you that I have 
long been quite interested and imrpressed with both the agenda of PDOIS, as 
with the people who make up this organization.I sealed that decision when it 
became clear that a flip of the same coin was being pedalled as something 
new. 

Yes, consider this one a failure to buy into your campaign to discredit 
PDOIS, and i think that so long as common sense prevails, here's to many more 
sharing the same sentiment.
Now, do yourself a favour and stop using Mother Theresa as a profanity, it 
only goes to display your disdain for all that is sincere. 

Now, you do me a favour by  please going back to perusing the trextbooks to 
collect quotations and big words to use in your next tretise to impress all 
of us.
